I know it sounds improbable but there have actually been two guys called Guybrush Threepwood with incredibly similar lives, and we’ve played them both across the different games (I’m not saying which was in which game, but if you knew it would surprise you). In Return their paths will finally cross.

You mean like a “wrong(ish) answers only,” “I wonder what happens in” thread?

I think the scene plays well with music. It is also good silent, but a little creepier.

Yeah, it wrings about as much is possible out of that Stan theme. And I love its arrangement of the Circus, and the way A Pirate I Was Meant To Be sneaks in as the intro to the SCUMM Bar. The whole point of that soundtrack is to retcon the Curse feeling back into Monkey 1 and it does a lovely job of it.

Yes, Stan’s theme “Cursed” style really does sound like it belongs. Great work by @AndywinXp !

Surely someone called it earlier in the thread.

Wow in the original game the back of the store, including the shopkeeper’s safe, took up the same place as the alley. (The shopkeeper contained the portal to big whoop all along, if Guybrush had just interrogated the contents of the safe further…)

Yeah, it’s great! I had so much fun with it. Haven’t played the post-game content yet, I’m kind of saving it for a rainy day. But the whole story was fun, platforming was constantly engaging, and it looked great. Can’t believe we got a Psychonauts 2 and it was great.

With the wonky handmade logo! Seems like that was never used officially - it was in the site metadata when they put the page up, but never actually appeared. One for the archives.

As far as I know, they were added by the team that did the CD-ROM edition, which was shortly after the main game and VGA upres were done. The Stan theme and the extension of the main themes weren’t done by Land.

Yeah I doubt it has anything to do with likeness rights, and everything to do with them wanting their own character designs and style for the SE.

Carla, Smirk, Elaine all get them, and Meathook’s scene has a closeup dedicated to it but it’s Guybrush. So many of the main Part 1 puzzle chains have a closeup, but you’re right that they disappear after that until the end of the game. Maybe they decided it wasn’t worth the disk space (That’s one reason why the LeChuck closeups were cut from Monkey 2.) but liked what they’d done so far and kept them?

And Monkey Island 7 is a Cap’n Crunch crossover.

Next month is Flamber, the 37 day long month, so maybe they’re onto something.

WOW wild take. I love the island hopping. It is definitely less good on replays than it is when you first play the game, but on my first playthrough, which is my most memorable one, the world felt huge and full of places containing secrets. That fantasy erases once you know the whole locale, so I fully get this opinion, but I still like it!
